Rough Sex Quartet - Untitled- Portrait series #8 [Turgid Animal - 2010]This self titled CDR offers up just under 26 minutes of churning, sleazed and extreme HNW matter from this mysterious and perverse project that comes from somewhere in northern England. The ‘wall’ on offer here is a swirling and painful mixture of: rolling ‘n’ rumbling textural noise roar, gritty and grainy static burns, and mid-pace semi industrial cerement mixer like churn. The track seems to be constantly gyrating, trusting and boiling away like a aged yet enraged john pounding into a half dead hooker..on and on and on. Though-out it’s full length the track doesn’t really move much out of it’s repetitive, churning and battering cycle, but it’s the way it’s all presented in such a perverse and dirty manner that makes it so entrancing and rewarding. The only down side is I felt it was all over to quickly, I felt they could have easily fed the sleazy, sludgy and soiled wall on for a least another half-a-hour, but I guess that’s the beauty of a repeat button. This project always mangers to create a perverse and distinctly crusty take on wall-making, and this just shy of thirty minute track is no different. So if you enjoy your walled-noise.. grimy, thick and perverse this is most certainly for you. Roger Batty
